Light Classical & Popular Sitar Covers
I bring the Sitar's deep, resonant voice to your favorite melodies. Whether you need a classic ghazal or a popular film song instrumental for your next video, reel, or documentary, I offer these tracks to bring an authentic Indian touch to your work.
I enjoy interpreting timeless melodies on the sitar, like this ghazal "Salona Sa Sajan Hai." This shows how the sitar can lend its unique voice to semi-classical and popular tunes, making it a versatile choice for background scores.

About Light Classical & Popular Covers
When I adapt a film song like 'Main Tenu Samjhawan' or a classic ghazal for the Sitar, my focus is on maintaining the original soul while letting the instrument speak. I record these with professional studio microphones so you get clean, high-quality audio ready for your timeline without the background noise often found in live recordings.
Many of the film songs we love share a beautiful, hidden DNA with Indian Classical Raags. My work involves uncovering that connection. When you ask for a popular cover, I do not just play the melody; I try to weave in the Raag that fits the mood of the song—whether it is the playfulness of Vrindavani Sarang or the longing of a Todi-based composition.
I record all these tracks in a dedicated studio setup. You will get clean stems, free from background noise, making it easy to drop into your edit software. If you are a filmmaker or content creator needing a unique Indian touch without using generic stock libraries, this is where I can help.
How we can work together
- Ready-to-use Tracks: I have a library of existing instrumental covers of ghazals and classic film songs that you can license immediately for your social media content.
- Custom Arrangements: If you have a specific song in mind for a documentary or a corporate promo, I can arrange and record a Sitar version tailored to the exact length and emotion you need.
My recording process follows professional standards, delivering master files in WAV format (48kHz/24bit). This ensures that whether you are posting to a mobile feed or editing for a big screen, the acoustic depth of the Sitar remains rich and clear. I keep things simple. Once we decide on the track, I share the high-resolution audio files. No complicated contracts, just good music for your project. If you have a specific tune in mind that you want to hear on the Sitar, let me know.
